The WRUSSQ instruction uses a memory operand, so use "m"
operand constraint instead of forcing usage of pointer
register using "r" constraint. The generated assembly
code improves from:
6ece3: 48 8d 43 f8 lea -0x8(%rbx),%rax
...
6eceb: 66 48 0f 38 f5 18 wrussq %rbx,(%rax)
to:

x86/asm: Use "m" operand constraint in WRUSSQ asm template
The WRUSSQ instruction uses a memory operand, so use "m"
operand constraint instead of forcing usage of pointer
register using "r" constraint. The generated assembly
code improves from:
6ece3: 48 8d 43 f8 lea -0x8(%rbx),%rax
...
6eceb: 66 48 0f 38 f5 18 wrussq %rbx,(%rax)
